# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - In a large bowl, combine 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon grated ginger. Add sliced chicken and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 10 minutes in the refrigerator, or up to 1 hour for deeper flavor.
02 - Heat 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken in a single layer and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and lightly browned. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside.
03 - Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 8 ounces dried noodles of choice. Cook according to package instructions until just tender. Drain well in a strainer.
04 - In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil. Add drained noodles and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Toss over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes until noodles are evenly coated and heated through.
05 - Return cooked chicken to the skillet with the noodles. Toss thoroughly for 2 to 3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated evenly.
06 - Transfer to serving plates. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Sprinkle red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately.

# Handy Tips:

01 - For an extra boost of flavor, marinate the chicken for up to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
02 - Toss noodles with a small amount of sesame oil after draining to prevent sticking.
03 - Use a large wok or a nonstick skillet to ensure the chicken and noodles cook evenly and do not stick to the pan.
04 - Customize the dish by adding vegetables such as bell peppers, carrots, or broccoli during stir-frying.
